Quote context

[...]

- You should see the Colosseum, Spaniard. Fifty thousand Romans, watching every movement of your sword, willing you to make that killer blow.

- The silence before you strike and the noise afterwards. It rises. It rises up, like a storm. As if you were the thunder god himself.

- You were a gladiator?

- Yes, I was.

- You won your freedom?

- A long time ago, the Emperor presented me with a rudius. It's just a wooden sword. The symbol of your freedom.

- He touched me on the shoulder, and I was free.

- You knew Marcus Aurelius?

- I did not say I knew him. I said he touched me on the shoulder once.

- You asked me what I want. I, too, want to stand in front of the Emperor, as you did.

- Then listen to me. Learn from me. I wasn't the best because I killed quickly. I was the best because the crowd loved me.

- Win the crowd, and you'll win your freedom.

Top rated lines from this movie

I knew a man who once said, Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back.
Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained? Is this not why you're here?
So much for the glory of Rome.
My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the armies of the north, general of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius...
Conjure magic for them, and they'll be distracted. Take away their freedom, and still they'll roar.
